"The ONLY reason Bush is president is because he conned the conservatives
into believing he was one of them." "What you should be doing, is asking yourself what you are smoking."
If Bush had been perceived to be the moderate globalist that he is,
many conservatives would have stayed home.
In case you don't know it, Bush beat Gore by the skin of his teeth.
Without Christian conservatives, and I mean true conservatives,
coming out in droves for Bush, Gore would have won easily.
As it was he won the popular vote.
In case you are unaware of that also.

I'm not convinced of that - a vote in the middle is worth two votes on the edge because the vote in the middle also takes away a vote from the opponant.

And handed the presidency to screaming, stark raving Algore?
Thanks, but no thanks.
"In case you don't know it, Bush beat Gore by the skin of his teeth."
After voters in the heavily Republican Florida Panhandle had given up, and not bothered to vote, because the rabid liberal media had maliciously called Florida for Algore, long before people in the Panhandle had even voted.
Take away the drive-by media shenanigans and President Bush would have won the popular vote.

That's like saying, without the Catholic vote for JFK, Nixon would have beaten JFK.
